Next Step, 2,3,4

So, tonight we are going to participate in a "sleep study" at the Nix Hospital downtown. Leahness will be hooked up to some monitors to see how much oxygen she is getting and how her brain waves are doing as she sleeps. This should be interesting! I get to sleep next to her, so she should be fine. And having been in the hospital twice, she knows how to sleep and go potty hooked up to wired monitors and such. I just hope this gives us some clues as to what is causing her epilepsy. She still has a lot of petit mal seizures and it is a roller-coaster to watch. Some days I take them in stride, others I want to cry. Like the one she had when I dropped her off at school last week. This one was so long, she started to drool. The cars behind me began honking and I felt like screaming at them. It makes me think twice before getting mad now; you never know what's going on in someone's life.
